There is a country that claims to be a country and puts out absurd regulations such as ‘prohibiting wearing crocs’.
Foreign media such as CNN and Daily Mail reported on Slowjamastan located in the desert of California, USA.

Slow Zamastan is a micronation established in December 2021 by radio DJ Randy Williams from San Diego, USA. Micronation refers to a group that claims the country they founded as a nation, but has not been officially recognized by international organizations.
Randy Williams has visited all 193 countries registered with the United Nations. After Turkmenistan, he had no other country to go to, so he decided to create the 194th country and took action.
In particular, the other micronations he visited had a great influence on the establishment of Slow Zamastan. It is known that there are about 70 micronations like Slow Zamastan around the world.

When asked about the form of government, Randy Williams replied, “A dictatorship that is sometimes a democracy.” He went on to say, “We will hold referendums from time to time,” he said, “recently allowing the people to vote on which fruits and sports can represent this country.”
Slow Zamastan’s ban is quite unique. It has rather strange regulations such as ‘no wearing of crocs’, ‘no chewable string cheese’ and ‘no mumble rap’.
According to the Montevideo Convention, which stipulates the conditions for a country to form, in order to be recognized as a country, it needs its territory, people, government, and diplomatic capabilities. Randy Williams argues that Slow Zamastan met all of these conditions.

Randy Williams said, “I sent a message to US President Joe Biden via email, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. to recognize independence from the United States, but he has not read it yet.” ”he said.
Although Slow Zamastan is not yet an official country, Randy Williams has traveled to a total of 16 countries with a Slow Zamastan passport. Countries such as South Africa and New Zealand, including the United States, stamped the country’s entry into the passport of Slow Jamastan. Also, more than 5,000 people are waiting to become citizens of Slow Zamastan.
